Timetables and Flight Information
gingerman28:
The times fit because we have two teams sighted at around 9:30AM on April 24 and another team (in the picture) at 11:35AM. Looks like this would be the first task in Salvador da Bahia.

Depending on when they arrive at LAX, teams have choices of 3 flight combinations to Sao Paulo:
4/22
LAX DFW AA2446 1250 1740 connecting in Dallas with DFW GRU AA963 1945 0750+1 (Note: first to arrive if on schedule)
LAX MIA AA252 1355 2142 connceting in Miami with MIA GRU 2330 0830+1 (Note: second to arrive if on schedule)
LAX GRU UA843 1405 1005+1 with a stop in ORD from 2005 to 2132 (Note: third and last to arrive)
4/23
This means that the tasks in Sao Paulo will have to take until after noon at the very least and that with a 12 hour pitstop it will be after midnight when teams are released.
4/24
There are numerous 2 1/4 hour nonstop flights from Sao Paulo to Salvador. However, choices are limited to the first 2 daily by virtue of the sighting of teams descending the exterior of the elevator just after 9am on 4/24. Those who were sighted could only be on this flight:
G3 1816 GRU SSA 0410 0625
Later teams could be on G31982 GRU SSA 0735 0950, but they will be quite a bit later to the elevator.

Yup. :tup:
--- Quote ---Oh, still wondering about the world's busiest airport, O'Hare International, and its ORD code? Well once upon a time, before the editor and publisher of the Chicago Tribune, Colonel Robert McCormick suggested a name change as tribute to pilot Lt. Cmdr. Edward "Butch" O'Hare, United States Navy, there was an airstrip well to the northwest of Chicago with a quaint, peaceful name—Orchard Field.

Reference pages like this are always a help; or you can just google the airport name and "iata" and get a decent result.
